About The Entry

Whenever I wear Gothic clothing, it seems like I am expressing another self - the more inner, mysterious and rebellious me. In order to develop this theme, I conducted in-depth research on the historical background of Gothic culture, typical visual style and unique structural characteristics of Gothic architecture.

I am particularly moved by the effect of light and shadow changes in Gothic architecture. The mottled and sacred light and shadow cast by the stained glass windows not only bring rhythm and layers to the space, but also reflect the contradictions and complexities in my heart. This strong contrast of light and shadow is like the externalization of inner emotions, solemn and quiet on the one hand, and hidden power on the other.

In design, I try to transform this light and shadow change into the language of fabrics and structures. Through the superposition of materials, the shaping of folds, and the contrast between transparent and opaque materials, the layers of inner world are expressed. Clothing is no longer just an external decoration, but a metaphor leading to the heart, a carrier of emotions, memories and self-cognition.
